Abstract
Morphological variations can occur in primary and permanent teeth. Genetic and environmental factors could be responsible for various dental anomalies. Anomalous teeth are usually asymptomatic and are diagnosed during routine oral examination. These anomalies may increase caries susceptibility and complicate dental treatment procedures such as extraction or root canal treatment. We report a rare case of mandibular first molar with a single root and a root canal.
